In a large bowl, combine the flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk just until moistened. Fold in chips.

Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 10-12 times or until dough is no longer sticky. Divide in half; gently pat or roll each portion into a 7-inch circle. Brush with butter and sprinkle with remaining sugar.

Cut each circle into eight wedges*. Separate wedges and place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 425 degrees for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly browned. Serve warm. ENJOY!

*Note: Cut the wedges into whatever size desired. You can cut each circle into 6, 8, or 12 wedges. Just be sure to adjust baking times.

6 wedges = 12-15 minutes

8 wedges = 10-12 minutes

12 wedges = 8-10 minutes

***********************

Start by combining your dry ingredients.

Then add in your buttermilk,

and mix until just moistened.

Next, fold in your chips. Cinnamon chips can be very difficult to find, but any chips work well in this recipe – chocolate, butterscotch, peanut butter, etc.

Now, get those muscles ready and gently knead your dough until it’s no longer sticky.

Divide the dough in half and gently pat into 7-inch circles.

Now brush your dough circles with the metled butter and sprinkle with remaining sugar.

Using a pizza cutter, cut each circle in your desired number of wedges,

and separate on an ungreased baking sheet.

Bake at 425 degrees for length of time matched to number of wedges in recipe above.

Mmmmm mmmmm!

I snagged one immediately after taking them out of the oven this morning and enjoyed it with a nice hot mug of coffee.

And now, if you’ll excuse me…I think it’s about time to go grab another one.

Those look fantastic! I’m really picky about scones too, because they can definitely be too dry. If I’m drinking tea or coffee, sometimes I like to dip them in it LOVE THOSE CINNAMON CHIPS TOO! They’re fantastic… I’ve put them in banana bread and they just add a little something special 😀

Scones are one of my favorite things to eat! These look delish and i will be making them to take to work tomorrow. I have no cinnamon chips, but will sub in white chocolate chips and dried cherries. I don’t think anyone will complain christina recently posted..Random

This post reminds me that I’ve never tried making scones before, but I am a HUGE fan of these cinnamon chips, so I should definitely put these on my to-do list this week! I’ve never had a scone now that I think of it! They are so good!Lou Alvarado recently posted..Arthritis Tips

I made these today after I received my yearly shipment of Hershey’s Cinnamon Chips from my mom (they’re not sold in stores where I live). This was my first time making scones of any type & it was a huge success. I will definitely be using this recipe to make many scones in the future!

Mmm! I love scones! I just made some cinnamon chip scones myself! And I’m so used to rock-hard chewy, tough, dry, BLAND scones, but finally, these changed my life!! Finally, a scone that’s buttery, tender, soft, and delicate. Mmm. Literally the best thing that I’ve made.

I used a slightly different recipe than yours with less flour – so the dough, and trust me when I say this, was not dry at all! I hope to try yours soon and compare!

[…] A few weeks went by and I started craving cinnamon chip scones again. When I found this recipe on Sweet Tooth Sweet Life, I practically jumped for joy. Why had I not thought of making these scones myself? Her recipe seemed so easy that there wasn’t any way I could resist trying it. You can find the recipe here. […]
